A Comparison Of Overbite Relapse To Age, Interincisal Angle And Lower Face Height In Class Ii Deepbite Cases, James E. Macalpine

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

Patients with deep skeletal or dental bites before treatment have been noted to have a greater tendency towards relapsing to this deepbite following orthodontic treatment than do patients whose malocclusion showed a more ideal overbite relationship before treatment.

This study utilized patients selected from Rocky Mountain Data Systems for their deepbite trends. Three areas were compared to overbite relapse, 1) age, 2) interincisal angle 3) lower face height.

Results of this study indicate that overbite cases that have the most problems in retention were skeletal deepbites. This study also indicates that there was no disadvantage to early treatment, that the …

The Acquisition Of Dental Skills: Value Of Exercise In Teaching Instrumentation, Deanne Shuman Allen

Biological Sciences Theses & Dissertations

The purpose of this investigation was to determine if there were significant differences in correct dental skill performance through manipulation of the independent variable, hand exercises, and the assigned independent variable, students' hobbies.

A Three-Group, nonrandomized, posttest only design utilizing a sample of 48 first-year dental hygiene students was developed. Subjects were assigned to groups on the basis of hobby questionnaire scores. All subjects received the traditional pre-clinical course of instruction. The study entailed a four-week period in which subjects were instructed in explorer instrumentation techniques followed by the administration of a Performance Examination.

A Pearson r between hobby questionnaire …

Effectiveness Of The Phase Contrast Microscope In Dental Patient Motivation, Denise Marie Bowen

Biological Sciences Theses & Dissertations

The purpose of this investigation was to examine the effectiveness of the phase contrast microscope when used as an adjunct to a patient education program in motivating individuals to improve oral hygiene habits. A convenience sample with randomized groups was utilized to select sixty-five subjects. Subjects attended five appointments: one appointment for oral prophylaxis, three appointments for oral hygiene instruction and a three month recall. A phase contrast microscope demonstration was the independent variable. Plaque scores were measured at each appointment using a Modification of the OHI-S. No statistically significant difference existed between the groups at any coinciding appointments. Statistically …

The Effects Of Topically Applied Citric Acid On Periodontally Diseased Root Surfaces, John S. Garrett

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

The goal of reconstructive periodontal therapy is new connective tissue attachment to periodontally diseased root surfaces. Recently Register (1973) and Register and Burdick (1975) have reported accelerated reattachment and cementogenesis when citric acid was applied to surgically created root surface defects. There are apparently no reports in the literature regarding the effects of citric acid on periodontally diseased root surfaces. This study was designed to determine the effects of topically applied citric acid on periodontally diseased root surfaces using the scanning (SEM) and transmission (TEM) electron microscopes.

Twenty three human teeth, nineteen extracted because of periodontal disease and four bicuspids …

The Treatment Timing Of Dolicofacial, Retrognathic Facial Patterns, George B. Clarke Jr.

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

The general consensus among orthodontists today is that the dolicofacial, retrognathic patient can present one of the most challenging problems for conventional orthodontic therapy. It is often stated that many of these patients will have more mandibular opening rotation during orthodontic treatment than the mesofacial or brachyfacial patient. This opening rotation is compounded when the use of cervical traction and Class 11 mechanics are incorporated into the treatment plan. Because of the problems involved with the treatment of these types of patients, it has been suggested in the literature that there may be an ideal age to start orthodontic therapy …

The Functional Stress Analysis Of Post Reinforcement, Robert V. Bravin

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

Research was undertaken in order to functionally test the reinforcement capabilities of several commonly used, standard manufactured posts. One hundred and ten maxillary lateral incisors were mounted in plastic, reinforced with the posts at different levels, and then restored with standardized crowns. These teeth along with control groups, were then placed in a custom, mounting jig which properly positioned them for the stress testing. The forces required for fracturing these teeth were recorded and subsequently analyzed.

The statistical analysis of the experimental results demonstrated that posts do not reinforce teeth as supposed; they may, in fact, weaken them. Analysis also …
